2020 Map of Lenz

About this map

Klamath Marsh National Wildlife Refuge dominates the eastern landscape of this Klamath County region, where the high desert meets extensive wetlands. The settlement of Lenz sits at a transition point between the arid Antelope Desert to the west and the hydrated basin of the marsh. This area is defined by its complex hydrology, with Big Springs feeding into Big Springs Cr, while Scott Cr and Lenz Cr weave through the terrain. The presence of Winema National Forest highlights the managed timberlands that flank the eastern Cascades. Transport and access are marked by Silent Creek, providing a path through the diverse ecosystems of the forest and refuge. The map illustrates a delicate balance of water management and forest preservation in a sparsely populated section of southern Oregon.
